Where can I get help using Groovy with Cycle?

Cycle now includes steps to execute simple Groovy statements inline as well as execute complex Groovy scripts. 

The 2 Cycle steps that execute Groovy are: 

I execute Groovy "<GROOVY_STATEMENTS>"
I execute Groovy script "<GROOVY_SCRIPT_FILE>"

Creating Groovy scripts can be challenging and take a little practice. We are building the Knowledge Base to include commonly used Groovy functions withing Cycle.

If you don’t find a Knowledge Base article for what you are trying to accomplish, here are a few places to look for Groovy help.
